2 General Information
2.1 System Overview
8742 is a 4-axis open-loop motion controller/driver for Picomotors, offering a
complete motion solution for many applications. It can control up to 4 Picomotors
and it can work in systems with other Model 8742 and 8743-CL Controller/Drivers
to drive a large number of Picomotors. The controller can be programmed via USB,
Ethernet, and RS-485 communication interfaces to perform different motion tasks:
relative and absolute moves, jogging, etc.
